You mean that I should increase my 28Gb to 30Gb and this do a trick? > How is your db_slow size? We should control it? You control it? How? Yes, I was in a similar situation initially where I had deployed my OSD's with 25GB DB partitions and after 3GB DB used, everything else was going into slowDB on disk. From memory 29GB was just enough to make the DB fit on flash, but 30GB is a safe round figure to aim for. With a 30GB DB partition with most RBD type workloads all data should reside on flash even for fairly large disks running erasure coding.
